Really great talk about to start at 12 as part of Maynooth social justice week about transgender peoples’ experience as workers and the labour market. Get the link to tune in here (2nd link): www.maynoothuniversity.ie/applied-soci...
Wow! That is horrendous! 😱
I love art in all its forms. I love seeing it and I love making it! Also very encouraged by all the talanted people around me making cool things!
A screenshot of a door drawn in magenta against a dark background. A dim view of a hallway can be seen through a tall window beside it. A crudely shaped, light purple dialogue box at the bottom reads in a rounded sans-serif font: "Have you ever gone home after being away for a long time?".
'Sup y'all! We've got something to show to a limited few of you. How we're describing it for the moment is: a "pain-of-the-past" point & click mystery with a verb-based interface. Does that sound interesting to you? Do you want an early say on the direction of the project? If so, then drop us a dm!

I want to try and post on here more often. (I will start soon but I’m a little sick at the moment.) I thought I would mention that I just joined Upscrolled. You can find me there with the same social handle.

The Irish Game Dev Portal connecting our Irish Game Dev Holiday Parties from Galway, Cork, and Dublin.
What a great night to catch up with fellow game developers. We probably had close to 200 game developers meet up Friday night for drinks, food, a bit of social games and prizes, and good craic.
Game Workers Unite Ireland met in Paris with 5 other European game unions to increase collaboration in a united front against industry exploitation.
We stand with our friends @stjv.fr , @csvi-cgt.bsky.social, @gameworkers.co.uk, FIOM-CGIL & GDRT @social.verdi.de

Hey folks, my husband possibly left or had his Steamdeck robbed on the L89 #Dublin Bus. The bus left Broombridge around 15.50 (the SD is at least password locked). If anyone knows anything let us know.
Ringing Dublin Bus in the morning on the chance someone handed it in instead of robbed it :/
noticed a stray lowercase P in our game just as i was about to get teleported.
i take LQA very seriously 😂
It was an absolute pleasure, and great craic, to chat with @neiljackman.bsky.social about the Hellfire Club in Dublin, which inspired our recent game Eyes of Hellfire.
Always up for a good Hellfire Club chat, and no better people to chat with than @lenhaunts.bsky.social and @unaminh.bsky.social, who created the brilliant Eyes of Hellfire game
Some of our members in Game Workers Unite Ireland were in Paris for a union summit today and joined the STJV and other European game worker unions for a solidarity protest outside Take Two offices.
The blatant union busting firing of the Rockstar 31 workers can not stand. Reinstate them now!
Incredible idea!

🤩✨ Immaculate!
i think one of my biggest problems with genAI is that it's not empowering. in fact it's doing the opposite of them; it's removing critical thought and essentially taking power from us. our brains are so valuable, why would we want to lose that?
It’s spooky season 🍂🎃👻 (as far as I’m concerned) and I have a recommendation to get in the spooky spirirt!
If you like atmospheric, eerie and dread inducing explorations of the darkest parts of our world, and our hearts, check out the incredible game We Went Deeper.

This Irish made horror game looks excellent!
